A collection of bitterly hilarious job application letters. Applying for
a job is stupid. It is a demeaning, humiliating exercise in learning to
grovel in front of faceless strangers. Everyone who has ever sent a job
application letter has felt the urge, the temptation to say what they
really think. To say something completely insane, or to be brutally
honest. With 2007's Overqualified, Joey Comeau acted on those urges and
delivered a book collecting his cover letters. "It's sad and fragmented
and, in places, funny," the L.A. Times said. But even after the dozens
of insane, hilarious, and sometimes strangely sad job application
letters, he still didn't get the job. So he's at it again. A person
needs to work, you know? But he's had to step things up a bit. Were the
letters not insane enough? Was he not sad or stupid enough? Did he not
threaten to bite as many CEOs as he should have? There's only one way to
find out: OVERQUALIFIEDER.
